Call Them Athletes Short Doc

Donation protected
Join us in our journey to bring justice to collegiate dancers. Our short documentary, Call Them Athletes, explores the disparities in treatment of midwest dance teams. We're raising funds to submit our film to festivals and cover travel costs. Your support will help us amplify the voices of these dedicated athletes who, despite the lack of scholarships and benefits, give their all to their schools. Please consider donating and sharing this fundraiser. Thank you for your support and stay tuned for public screening information!

A synopsis: In exchange for disrespect and a lack of funding, collegiate dancers give more than their all to their schools. Three midwest dance teams showcase the accomplishments and talents of their programs, and reveal the dark side of dance team. No scholarships, no benefits, and year-round commitments are just the tip of the iceberg.
